[Relation between the carcinogenic activity of conjugated polycyclic hydrocarbons and the form of their localized...

The carcinogenic activity of some compounds is linked to the electronic structure of their molecules. The authors calculate the localized molecular orbitals (LMO) by means of a topologic method they have developed, based in the electronic distribution of a single molecular region, that coincides or is next to the K region, instead of having to consider the two classical regions (K and L).
